Yeah, that's not happening ever. Chimera Ant arc is too good to even consider it. Plus, there's also York New. It's so far from being in the relations. You're asking for something that's in the E-List to go to relations. That's not that simple.

I'd say that anything that sometime ws in the e-list cannot go to the r-list and viceversa. Just to give the club more credibility.

Also, HxH is the 2nd best shonen of all time. It is easily one of the top 20 all time anime series

I'd like to agree but can't. There are things on the E-List that aren't good and we're looking into it. But it's just a really tough process and we can't just snap a finger and make it happen.

I'm not saying that you can't remove things from the lists. But if you do, you can't put it in the other.

I don't see why not. In the case of something like Madoka and Evangelion they could absolutely fit into both categories, it's just a matter of if that's a popular opinion or not within the club. If you get someone like Sushi in here he'll tell you all day long that NGE should be in relations as well as elist.

I'm not the only person who stated that in the past, many members (including people who like it like Nid and Amber) said that it's better if we put it on both lists.

But anyway, I'm all for more democracy when it comes to entries on Relations, the process is way more convoluted than the elist, since we never poll, vote or care to see what club members think about Relations entries.

Log Horizon is actually extremely well-written and thought-out, I honestly wouldn't want it to be on Relations alongside SAO.

Overlord and Rokka no Yuusha are both forgotten about, I doubt they'd have the scores they have right now in a few months' time.

Overlord does seem like an alright suggestion at 8.18, but Rokka no Yuusha is barely hovering above the threshold at 7.80. It's a matter of time before it goes below the threshold, and I don't we need to flood Relations with stuff under the threshold more than it already does.

Speaking of which, here's stuff under or barely above the anime limit's threshold:
- Deadman Wonderland: 7.57
- Highschool of the Dead: 7.57
- K: 7.72
- Kiss x Sis (why was this even put): 7.52
- Index: 7.76
- Shakugan no Shana: 7.81
- OreImo: 7.61
- Vampire Knight: 7.51
- Zero no Tsukaima: 7.69

Mahouka is the kind of thing that I honestly wouldn't mind if it rots there forever, but the other shows are nowhere near overhyped nowadays.

I think after everything settled, most of those are adaptations even fans of the source material weren't huge on from what I've seen. I think they were more just phases I think, maybe just their manga/LN versions should stay on perhaps. Can't remember the last time I'd heard someone bring up Deadman or Shana, and I think no one likes Vampire Knight anymore, especially with (from what I've heard) the dire ending to the manga and such.

I'm not advocating removal of any of these directly, just contributing to the discussion.

As for Kiss x Sis, I believe it was put on because they found even a score like that was far too high for it lol.

I see no problem with keeping them for now, as they are probably the most essential parts of the relation list.

How. They're not relevant and nobody cares about them.
Like legit, I can't remember the last time someone brought up Zero no Tsukaima or Deadman Wonderland in a positive light irl.

I suggested we remove 9 shows out of 47. That is less than a fifth.
A far, far cry from all of them.

You're using your silly 'irl' judging meter again for what you consider overhyped. The only one out of your nine that would apply for me would be Zero no Tsukaima, which I might just remove.

I'm using the actual scores you guys said are the limit as a judging meter. If you think that's silly, then that's your problem.

And why shouldn't I state that I hardly heard about certain shows in real life here and use that as an argument? Few of these shows aired on television, and it's not like anime fans here are vastly different from anime fans abroad, unless you're implying that somehow fans here see a completely different show while watching the same show online/after downloading it.

If you guys are saying popularity is all that matters (even though that's misleading and can even prove to be wrong) then I fail to see why ratings even matter. The Relations list was supposed to be 15-20 shows, and now we have almost 50 shows on it, a good portion of which don't deserve to be there anymore since they're irrelevant/no one mentions or talks about them.

I call bullshit on Elfen Lied being ranked in the top 15 in popularity for example, I literally have never heard someone praise it while I was here and in my time in Canada (2012 to 2013) I heard more people who disliked it than like it.

MAL's popularity =/= How popular a show actually is or perceived. So using that as a measuring stick is just plain incorrect.

And if we're talking ratings, then I've already made my point.

I don't even know why we're arguing about this. It's literally in the rules you guys set up (though I'm against using popularity as a measuring stick and more in support of how people actually see the show, which you guys don't want for some reason).

Where in our rules does it state we have a set score limit for shows in relations? Also you're talking about a club on MAL. We were here to exist as a direct opposite of MAL and it's userbase. So of course we're going to go by MAL standards, with a few exceptions. And even if you wanted to do the real life judging meter as I stated the only show I have not heard praise for irl in the past year would be Zero because nobody cares about that show.

Because we use MAL as a scoring meter. If you legit can't remember, let me quote this:
Nidhoeggr said:

My inital idea would be the Top 750/500 or a rating about 7.80-8.00. Agree/disagree?


To which the members unanimously agreed.
I am not proposing the real life meter, I am proposing we judge shows by literally how people perceive them.
Shana is dated and irrelevant, and most of its former fans either acknowledged its flaws but still like it, moved on with other anime or aren't even watching anime.
Zero no Tsukaima is hated more than it's liked, specifically by the Harry Potter fanbase.
Deadman Wonderland's fanbase adores the manga and says the anime is shit.
Highschool of the Dead's fanbase (with very, and I mean very few exceptions) knows how flawed the show is and makes no effort to pretend that it's something deeper than it is (generally perceived as a mindless fun show).
K appeals to the fujoshi crowd and it's fans are self-aware (though extreme ones do exist).
Everyone knows Kiss x Sis is trash.
Index's fanbase considers the light novels better and the show has been made completely irrelevant because of Railgun.
OreImo is generally perceived to be trash, the ending has made the show a big no for people to watch.
Vampire Knight's fans have moved on, the show is generally liked by Twilight fans and they moved on when the movies ended (it was part of the vampire phase).

So us being an anti-MAL makes no sense when we are so defined by MAL and its non-existent standards. That's all I'm trying to point out.

Are you understanding my point or is it still not sinking in?

I'm afraid that's not the rules, sushi. That's a really old post. Almost three years old. I recommend you go to our official rules thread and give it a quick read over and let me know what you find regarding a set score being in place for relations.

Protip: You won't find any.

Why? Because it was removed a few months ago. Now please take a seat somewhere, read the rules, and enjoy the fall season.

Thanks for clarifying though.

1. This conversation is only happening because you misunderstood what someone said. No one said the show was overrated, they said that this is a place to talk about overrated shows and not about shows you like. If you wanted to talk about a show you think is good, this is the wrong place.

2. The only explanation you offer is "The characters actually changing and growing. The plot does develop." If you want people to explain why they don't like the show, actually explain why you like it first.

3. It doesn't make your opinion look very good if your response to people questioning you is to immediately accuse them of dishonesty instead of actually standing up for your opinion.

I'm going to have to interject. Whilst I am no means a fan of Bakemonogatari nor would I say that I like it. I don't really believe it to be bad enough to be on the relations list. Maybe if we are talking about it in terms of artistic quality versus popularity would I consider it (which I would, unless we are talking about its sequels than I would really have no problem with adding them or it to the list), but I felt that there was a handful of qualities to the first season that kept it just above mediocrity. I may be outspoken on this but I like to give everything a fair chance.

I'll have to give a -1 to Bakemonogatari. It certainly is extremely talkative (and sure as hell can come off as pretentious) but the characters are both well-developed and interesting, and the side stories are pretty varied (though formulaic). Also, Shaft's animation style changing during various scenes was an interesting touch, and I honestly think that if any other studio did it, no one would have watched or cared about it.

Only overrated works can be added. That means they have wide spread popularity/acclaim but are usually below average. But, tbh, no one should care about the Relations anymore.
